At present, Impact Aid Section 8002 funding is a $67 million line item, which provides funding to over 200 school districts in 29 states as a replacement for the lost local revenue caused by the federal presence. In some small, rural communities, the Federal Government is the largest landowner. Therefore, smaller and rural districts would be disproportionately affected by the proposed Section 8002 cuts. The proposed cuts would cause financial harm as Impact Aid supports personnel and professional development, academic materials, transportation, technology, and other general operating expenses.
